    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Happy anniversary everyone :)

    I have that astoria feeling again today and it's great :) . Thought about it on the bus this morning - I was on the train from airport at that time. Thought about it at around 9.20 - I was probably just after meeting Barbara, Conguita and others around that time. Right now, I'm guessing I could have been introducing myself to Barry and Steve :)

    Ah the memories are just flooding back :o

    Right about now, I think I may have been giving Jman his ticket.

    ok, here's something weird that happened on the bus on my way into work this morning...
    i was listening to some random music on my ipod and this song came on

    soulsavers feat. mark lanegan - revival

    Said 'gonna be a revival tonite' oh
    Wanna see a revival yeah
    Gonna be a revival tonite
    Lord let it be a revival yeah
    Forgive what I have done
    It means my soul survival oohh
    I need you so insane
    pouring into my suffering oh
    Why am I so blind with my eyes wide open? ooh
    Trying get my hands clean between your hand
    Wanna see a revival tonite
    Lord let it be a revival yeah
    Need to see a revival tonite oh
    Wanna see a revival oh
    Why am I so blind with my eyes wide open? yeah
    Now I need someone
    When the start might be done oh
    I need you so insane
    pouring into my suffering
    Wanna see a revival tonite
    Lord it needs to be a revival

    and guess what came on next?
    present tense from the astoria boot...
    must have been a sign...
    it's a good thing that everyone around me was probably way to tired to notice the creepy smile on my face :)

    More terrifying than meeting Dunk?! :eek: Did you get your space held?

    Hopefully you'll hold me a space in the queue outside Wembley!
